Scentsy Review & Giveaway *CLOSED*

I was contacted by the LOVELY Nicole Garton of Scentsy and she offered me a great kit for review. She sent me the Scentsy Full Size System. Which is a Full size warmer and 3 scent bars of MY choice!!

My warmer, 3 scents of my choice, She also included the March scent of the month sample, Jumpin Jelly Bean and a scent circle for the car.

Vanilla Walnut, Hazelnut Latte, and Perfectly Pomegranate

The warmer is powered by a simple lightbulb.

The Torino Warmer

Screw in lightbulb.

Put top on... (HI BELLA)

Here are the bars. You just break off 1-2 chunks.

Place in warmer

Missing piece.

Plug into standard outlet

It starts to melt!!

In just a few minutes it's all melted.

See

SO simple. Easier then candles too. I can Easily let Avery turn it on using the switch on the cord and she can help smell up the house. Much safer then a lighter, or a candle that can easily get knocked over.

This gets a little bit hot where the light shines through, but not hot enough to burn a hand.

Actually SEMI funny story. We had friends over, the little girl is afraid of Bella. So I put her cage in the entryway to the kitchen and locked her in the kitchen. Well I helped her carry something out to her car and Bella decided to take it upon herself and jump the counter. NOW this is a little island type and there are cabinets above so picture a St. Bernard jumping a counter in about 2.5 feet of clearance space?

Yeah she knocked over the scentsy warmer. She got wax EVERYWHERE. Our carpet is ruined, but she didn't burn herself (although the wax is STILL there) and nothing set on fire. So I'm very thankful for that.

We are avid candle burners, so this was a nice change for us.

It says you can use 1-2 chunks for more scent. 1 is enough to do our living space. It lasts a LONG time too. I used that first chunk for 5 days before I wanted to try another scent, but it was still plenty strong. I just turned it on, let it melt and wiped it out with a paper towel as best as possible. Then stuck a different scented chunk in it and I was onto a new scent.

VERY easy. As you saw screw in lightbulb, place top on, place in chunk and plug in. THAT EASY!! The scents are AMAZING too. They are strong, but not too strong. My favorite is the Perfectly Pomegranate, followed by the Hazelnut Latte and the Vanilla walnut isn't that great, but it's okay. The Jumpin Jelly Bean sample she sent me is GREAT as well. Smells just like a Jelly Bean. That sample lasted me 2 whole days of burning!!

And the Scent Circle is in Twilight Woods. NOT a fan. It's in my truck. It's BARELY peaking out the top of the wrapper (the more you pull out the stronger) and it's SO strong I get an instant headache when I enter the truck. So I removed it. It was bad for me. I'm sure a more tolerable scent would be good though, but because it's not a desirable scent (for me) it wasn't that great and was actually mind blowing.

They also carry Scentsy Bricks which are MUCH bigger. These are 8 chunks which could easily last you a month, In my opinion.

And they carry small and mid size warmers as well as plug in warmers. Fragrance Foams, Room Sprays, Travel Tins, and Scent Paks (for drawers etc) are in their collection. The new Scentsy Buddy is adorable too. There's a pak you stick in the stuffed animal's back and you can cuddle it!!

Price: SUPER REASONABLE!! 6 Bars are $25 when you buy them multi, Or $5 each. The scent of the month is usually on sale for $4.50. The Scentsy Buddy is $25. The warmers are $30 individually OR The Full Size System (Warmer and 3 bars) is $40, so you save $5. The Scent Circles are only $3!

Overall: ***** EASY. I just bought 6 more bars!! That good!
